Our eye needs oxygen to produce water which in turn moisturizes our eye and helps to clean the dirt that accumulates during the daytime. One of the problems that the contact lens wearers faced is that because the early designs of contact lenses blocked the oxygen supply thus causing the eyes to be dry and irritated. New designs, including the soft contact lenses and day and night contact lenses things have improved and more and more people are benefitting from it. But it is crucial that you first consult your optician physician to make sure there will be no side effects on your eyes by wearing them. Also please note that wearing contact lenses for long periods of time can often result in infections.
